Promise more (and much better) pics soon, especially one of the entire brood together. I just need my girl to feel better first. And to find a minute in the day when we’re all together and actually dirtless, boogerless and tearless…

Vivi and Shep looks so comfy together! He's getting big, too! Can't wait to see the brood together and heck don't worry about the dirtless/boogerless/tearless thing, we know you have your hands full and stuff happens, we just want to see all the love surrounding your family. Sorry you have sick kids this week, hope more fun to follow!KD

Totally adorable!! I can't get over how well she's manipulating that fork and how she's feeding herself, wow!! Hope she get's well soon, even sick she still looks like a happy camper, what a darling little girl you have.

I hope she's feeling better. The photos are priceless. They show her as part of her forever family and her forever home. What a wonderful little girl, and what a fantastic family for her to come home to. God has, as always, chosen perfectly.

I am so sorry to hear that Vivi is sick. But so grateful for the updates, photos and video. Can hardly wait for the group photo … but you will put us all to shame if in fact everyone is tearless, boogerless, and dirtless!

Hope Vivi feels better soon. I love the photos of Vivi and Shepherd eating together…too cute! What a busy household you must have. C'mon…you have to someday tell us how you do it day in and day out. I never seem to keep up 5 and only 4 are here most of the time. The girls had no warm sock this morning…so I had to stop and head to the sock basket and matched 52 pairs…I'm am truly too far behind sometimes 🙂
